Khloé Kardashian

Speaking to Into The Gloss, Khloé Kardashian revealed that she loves Make Up For Ever's lip liners as "they literally do not move on your lips. I don’t know the names of the colors." She now owns all the colours in the range.

Gigi Hadid

DNA probably has a massive part to play in the fact that Gigi Hadid has incredible cheekbones, but the other side of it is that she knows which makeup works for her, such as ensuring she highlights those cheekbones, too, using Maybelline Master Strobing Stick.

Jennifer Aniston

Other than working out six times per week (phew!), there's another part of her beauty regime that Jen An never does without, telling The New York Times, "I always have a Fig lip liner by Estée Lauder; I've been using that pencil forever."

Leighton Meester

A woman after our own hearts, Leighton Meester recommends the most practical makeup buy of the lot: the Rosebud salve. The Gossip Girl star also offers up a tip on how to wear it suggesting, "If you put a little colour under it, it's nice and moisturising."
